Here is the overview of the JavaFX LinksOfTheMonth of April 2025. You can find the weekly lists on jfx-central.com. Did we miss anything? Is there anything you want to have included in one of the next overviews? Let us know via [email protected].

Core

  • From the [email protected] mailing list: "The first Early Access (EA) build of JavaFX with the Windows Direct3D 12 rendering pipeline is now available. ... At this stage D3D12 backend is feature-complete, however optimization and performance have not been the focus yet. There?s still a number of improvements and adjustments that must be made in order to match/surpass D3D backend. Notable areas known to us which need improvements are the 3D pipeline and cases where color blending is used - they will work but they will be (much) slower than D3D. Please keep that in mind when testing. ... We look forward to your feedback."

Applications

  • William Antônio Siqueira extended LLM FX and shared a screenshot: "It now supports Image Content! You can now interact with LLM not using only text, but also images. See this example using Gemma3:4b running locally."
  • Cormac Redmond announced version 1.2.1 of KafkIO: "Better IPV6 support, better OAUTHBEARER support, improved error information, improved Hex viewer, and now with a Hex serde -- easily produce binary messages!"
  • Javier Llorente announced V1.0.0 of OBS FX: "OBS FX is a basic JavaFX-based Open Build Service client. It uses the the jOBS library to consume the OBS REST API."
  • Sean Phillips shared a link to the sources of CocoAnnotationViewer: "Standalone JavaFX viewer for COCO annotations. Supports Bounding Boxes and Segmentation Polygons. Includes drag and drop support for annotation JSON files with Jackson based Serialization support."
  • Andrea Vacondio posted on Foojay "Building Autopo: An AI-powered Open Source Application to Manage .po Files": "In this article , I’ll walk you through the journey that led me to create Autopo, a free and open source JavaFX desktop tool for managing .po files and with AI-powered features to translate and validate .po entries."
  • Carl Dea shared a video of Integrated Knowledge Management (IKM), an open source knowledge base platform as a cross platform installed application for MacOS, Windows, Linux, and Browser users: "We've been busy developing our semantic authoring features. Testing our numerous ways to reference components (Concepts, Patterns, Semantics). When using concept oriented data the user will be able to drag and drop items from various UI controls. Also component fields provide a search suggestion popup."
  • JabRef can now be used from the command-line, thanks to JBang: "_Ever wondered whether your bibliography is conistent? Ever wanted to create a focused BibTeX file based on your LaTeX aux file? These features were available in JabRef's GUI. Now, they are available on command line with MARKDOWN_HASH32c9f1c036adda0c8daa9ecbaa856766MARKDOWNHASH. Powered by JavaFX's observable lists 😅."
  • Patrik Karlström is having a release day: "I have just published rebuilds with dependency updates such as JavaFX and NetBeans 26 of the following apps: CRIC (Custom runtime image creator), Mapollage

Components, Libraries, Tools

  • New jDeploy blogpost by Steve Hannah, Starting a new JavaFX project: "With jDeploy’s new desktop app comes some shiny new project templates to help get you started on the right foot. All project templates come pre-wired for manual deployment (e.g. you press “Publish” and it uploads directly to GitHub releases or npm), and automated deployment via GitHub workflows (e.g. when you create a new release, it adds your app bundles to the release)."
  • Matt Coley shared a video of work-in-progress for BentoFX, a Docking Framework for JavaFX: "Its very much a WIP, but if anyone has a use for such a thing and has feature requirements/ideas I'd love to hear them." The repo is on GitHub.
